What was your first car?

2004 Mustang V6.
I, unfortunately, have no pictures of it from pre-drunk driver.

After that was my 1996 Mark VIII, then the 1997 Mark VIII:

Aaaand now the 2001 Jaguar S-Type 4.0
I'd trade the Jag in a heartbeat to have my '97 VIII back, though.

Hey, I waited for two weeks!! I'm still looking at Mark VIIIs in the area, but nothing has come up. I had a lead on a 1996 with 27,000 original miles, but they guy turned out to be a flake and stopped answering my calls. =\
 
My first car was technically a 1970 Ford Maverick with a 6 cylinder that usually ran on 3, give or take a couple. It was a rare "three-tone red" car (hood, drivers door, and body were three different shades of red). What a POS.

That lasted about five months, then I got my favorite car, a 1976 Ford Elite the year I graduated from high school. It was known affectionately as either "The Pimpmobile" or "The World's Cleanest Car" (because I kept it immaculate). I had a 429 PI installed in it a few years later, but had a guy rebuild it on the cheap and he didn't replace the fuel pump, which got a leak soon after and started pumping fuel into the crankcase with predictable results. I'd give anything to have that car back.

After that was a '88 Turbo Coupe which I got 186k out of, then a run of the mill 95 T-bird which got rear-ended and totaled, then the Mark.
 
Lets see,my very first car was a 1967 Ford Custom 500 XL was an LAPD undercover narc car

My second is one of the few cars I wish I still had,I bought it brand new of the show room floor 1987 Buick Regal Grand National GNX
These pictures are not the actual cars but 100% acurate to the ones I owned
